Special Exhibits.

The special features to be seen in the building
and on the grounds are numerous, and no visitor
to the fair should fail to call and examine them.
Among those noticed by the reporter yesterday
were the following
THE MOST ATTRACTIVE OF ALL.
There are many attractive and pleasing ex-
hibits the grounds this year in the various
departments. from fine art down to stock and
agricultural machinery. In the latter line the
displays especially worthy OF mention.
Among them all the ono which stands out most
conspicuous is that of the Deering harvesting
machinery. Their handsome pavilion IL located
east of Exposition building. and about midway
between that and the eastern boundary of the
grounds 1t is one of the most attractive build
lngs on the grounds. but this year the decora-
tion or bunting, combined with the unique
rangement OF the machines, has made il the
exposure OF all eyes The principal feature of
the machinery exhibit is an all-s binder,
placed on a rotating platform. This gives the
visitors u correct idea OF the work of the ma
chine in the field A front-cut Giant mower
New DeerIng. a one horse mower and fold
ing bar reaper comprise the full exhibit. all of
which are shown in full operation. propelled by
electric power. In o conversation with Mr.. j. D.
Truett, the general agent for Indiana under
whose special supervision the display lie made,
it was learned that the past season has been the
most successful in the history of the business in
this State. Mr.. Truett is N inGefatigable work
er. one who thoroughly understands the machine
trade, and il is due TO his push and enterprise
that the sale of the Deering harvesting
chinery in this section has reached it's phenome-
nal success. If figures are any criterion to judge
from. there have been more Deering machines
sold in Indiana the past season than have been
solo OF any other make. Competitors may deny
this but figures will not lie. the Deerine has
grown in popular favor every year. There is
no better more perfect harvesting machinery
manufactured. Farmers are beginning TO realize
this, and that is why the sales are reaching such
mammoth proportions. The handsome printed
matter distributed by Deerng & Co. is quite in
contrast with that Of com petitors, and displays
the same spirit of enterprise which ia character
istic OF this wide-awake firm. Mr.. Truett is to
De congratulated on the interest he has added to
tne state fair, and il the state Board of Agri-
culture DO not extend him a vote OF thanks they
